Opinions of Porterfield R4-S pads?

searched, found a lot of people mentioning them, or bought them but havent installed them yet. No actual user feedback
how do they compare to the HPS' and HP+'s. Same for the other pads around.

And hows the dusting?
How much did you pay for both F/R sets?

Thanks,
Ben Martin

They're awesome street pads...good, if not excellent initial grip and good modulation to boot. They do dust but it's easy to clean and nowhere near as bad as say Hawk HP's. IMHO, best street pad I've ever tried. One caveat, they don't bite as hard when cold but do warm up quickly. It's very important to bed them in properly. Can't remembered what I paid for a full set.

I`ve had both the HPS and the R4s. Pretty much equivalent. I would buy either one... whichever is cheapest.
